Red Top Mountain State Park Iron Hill Multiuse Trail

Cartersville, Georgia

This area, in the southern portion of the park, was originally developed as a picnic area with a boating access road. The site has been converted for use as a hiking and mountain biking trail. The trail gets its name from the nineteenth-century iron mining operations that were carried out in this area.
From the parking area, the gravel access trail descends a short distance to the Iron Hill Multiuse Loop Trail. Hikers may choose to travel in either direction, and this description follows the path on a counter-clockwise route. Be alert for mountain bikers, especially on weekends when the trail may be quite busy.
